"Meta is open to supporting small devs"
- Ester from @resistancestudio.bsky.social (Spain)

She's live now on our Discord server, talking about her XR games and her relation with Meta

2026 is around the corner and yep : Game industry economics are still bleak for western countries and junior staff.

But a few new actors are trying to shake things up on the financing & distribution side :🧵

We’re proud to introduce four inspiring studios joining this year’s MATCH Coproduction Market:

🇨🇦 Buffalo Buffalo
🇧🇷 Aquele Grupo lá
🇨🇦 Games by Stitch
🇧🇷 Zudenken Games

Take Us North An interactive narrative that follows the journeys of migrants and asylum seekers on their way to cross the US-Mexico border

To support the project and the safety of the team, check out their Kickstarter (link in the comments).
www.kickstarter.com/projects/tak...

The video game industry — especially the indie scene — must recognize the vulnerability of its community and stand up to protect those who need it most.

No creators — in games or any other medium — should ever be harassed or threatened for telling strong and meaningful stories, regardless of the political climate. 𝐖𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐨𝐦 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐞𝐜𝐡 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧.

#TakeUsNorth is a creative, well-researched, and powerful immersive experience about the challenges migrants face in their search for safety, away from violence, corruption, and death.

𝐖𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐔𝐬 𝐍𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐡!
The creators at anima interactive are facing waves of hate from a very loud minority unwilling to accept the reality of the world, voicing only selfish and harmful opinions.
